Art from dissected books by Alexander Korzer-Robinson

By Antonia Edwards

Alexander Korzer-Robinson

Alexander Korzer-Robinson is a UK based artist who creates beautiful book sculptures using cut out images from old encyclopaedias and books. His work contains narratives that try to explore and deconstruct nostalgia, creating what he describes as our ‘inner landscapes.’ Pictured above – The Boy’s Own Annual, 1880.
